Peaceful Sleep

They say those who choose you
Never come back
So long we forgot those who had you
Peaceful as they claim you to be
Pieces of broken hearts remain
As those who are closer to us choose you
A solution you pretend to be
To those who fear to endure reality
I wish you only came
As you visited my grandparents
It's unfortunate that you do not
Only come as you come
Some see a twilight of peace in you
